Hatem needs a lift to the Cairo Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?
Hatem needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Hatem has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Cairo Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Hatem can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week.
We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 9 km each way.
Hatem is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food.
Please say which day works for you in the comments.

Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Nuremberg.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Savar but we're thinking of you.
Wishing you peace, Wafa. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Hang in there, Wafa. Hope the doctors have good news. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Sending strength, Wafa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up.
